So the Trump Campaign needs to pay minimum $60k to the Rockets for renting the Arena, right (based on the price quote on their website)? Is he on the hook for a cancellation fee to the HCSCC for NRG Center? Nice pay day for Fertitta and the County if so. If Fertitta cuts them a rent break, I’d imagine that’s an illegal campaign contribution?

Gross! Thank goodness I finally moved out of conservative Texas and into a more politically neutral state now. It’s like night and day! Texas’ state politics and supporters are the worst, if not an utter embarrassment.

Womps and prayers. Glad they moved it away from my neighborhood. The cultists can now celebrate their false God with central access to the freeways so they can quickly get home to the safety of suburbia.

I would assume the centralized location and abundance of public streets and sidewalks around Toyota Center will make this a welcome decision…for anyone planning large protests. That it’ll be held in place named after a Japanese automaker instead of an American energy company is a nice touch as well.

Bocepus, why isn’t Ted interested in the Zodiac Killer’s endorsement? They seem like the same guy, loners with a murderous glint in their eye, who go by an assumed name and have a penchant for expressing a demented worldview in which he himself is the source of all power …

I’d also seen a significant number of people boosting ticket signups for the purpose of no-showing as well. If those reservations were still being used to gauge likely attendance for venue size needs, rather than to actually mark real reservable seats, the disparity between attendance and size could be… significantly more dramatic. (Not that we’re likely to get an accurate crowd size estimate, of course.) What’s the NRG cancellation fee, again?
